Ice Caps

A bold original A5 gouache painting featuring a resolute polar bear silhouetted against the horizon, rendered with confident ink outlines. The composition glows with a luminous wash of yellows, blues, oranges and pinks that merge seamlessly across both sky and ground, creating an immersive, dreamlike environment. The interplay of warm and cool tones captures a moment of quiet strength, while the gouache medium lends richness and immediacy to this striking portrait of resilience.
